The match between the two Asians apparently didn't attract much attention from the European media, and it was a natural result for world No. 15 Zhang Guan to win over world No. 42 Lee Hyung-taek.

However, in Asia, this game has attracted much attention, and the Korean media has already marked this game as the "first in Asia" dispute, and the national media has not been accustomed to the Korean media's praise of Lee Hyung-taek, and the two sides have been fighting a war of words for several days.

The big score is 3-o, and the three-set game is 6-o, which also announced that this war of words can finally end, Zhang Guan won the victory like a crusher, and also made all the Korean media speechless. After not winning a game in three sets, and losing with this score, I can't find any excuse other than being skilled. The national media was jubilant, and many media used the picture of Li Hengze's tears.

"Did you watch the tennis match last night? Zhang Guan made that Korean man cry!"

"Of course, Zhang Guan really played too ferociously, all three sets were 6-O, and Li Hengze didn't win a game.

"You said that Zhang Guan was too ruthless, he was an international friend, and he made a game of more or less people. It's not easy for people to come to the French Open, how ugly it is to take a duck egg back!"

"What do you want, you didn't read the news report a few days ago, but the Koreans have been saying that Lee Hyung-taek defeated Zhang Guan and wanted to be the number one in Asia! Zhang Guan should fight a little harder, let them see how powerful we are!"

……

The news of Zhang Guan's opponent's crying instantly spread all over the country and became a fun conversation after dinner, and at this time in Paris, Zhang Guan had already begun to prepare for the next game.

Due to the rain two days before the French Open, many matches in the first round were postponed, but the time of the second round did not change, so Zhang Guan ended the next day with Lee Hyung-taek. is going to participate in the second round of the men's singles.

Zhang Guan's opponent in the second round is named Navarro, a Spaniard, a name that is very common in Spain, playing basketball and football. Even the tennis women's singles, there are stars with this name.

However, the Navarro he faced in the second round was not a well-known star, he was a qualifier and ranked outside the top 100 in the world, and Navarro's opponent in the first round was also a qualifier. The strength is also not strong, so Navarro was able to advance to the second round of the French Open.

A qualifier is obviously not a threat to Zhang Guan, and Navarro is also very self-aware, he has no hope of defeating Zhang Guan, after all, Zhang Guan is the No. 15 seed of the tournament and the champion of this year's Australian Open, which is definitely not something he can beat as a qualifier.

Zhang Guan then won comfortably 3-o on aggregate to advance to the third round, with the scores of 7-5/6-3/6-1 in the three sets. And his opponent Navarro, who was able to advance to the second round as a qualifier, is already very content.

Zhang's next match will be on June 1. The venue is no longer Court 7, but the main venue of the French Open, the Philip Stadium, and the main reason why the match will be played on the main court is because Zhang Guan's next opponent is a French player, Gael Monfils.

……

"Gail Monfils is a black player, and black players are as rare as yellow players in professional tennis. You've already eliminated a yellow player in the first round, but you didn't expect to eliminate a black player in the next game. Coach Zhang Depei said with a smile.

There are very few black players in professional tennis, and most people can't think of any black player in the women's event except the Williams sisters, and the men's event is dominated by the white race. It's even harder to find a black player.

Today, in the top 10 of the world rankings, only Blake is of black ancestry, and his father is black. His mother was white, so many people didn't see Blake as a black player. But the French Monfils is a real black African player.

I only heard Zhang Depei continue to introduce: "Monfils is twenty-one years old this year, and like your age, he can be regarded as a young fame, and at the age of eighteen, he won three junior Grand Slam championships, ranking first in the world in the junior category. He is ATP Rising Star Player of the Year. In the past, Monfils also became the 'four kings' of tennis with Djokovic, Murray, and Gasquet. ”

"The other three are not simple. Zhang Guan nodded and said. The other three of the four kings, Djokovic and Murray, will all become members of the four kings of tennis in the future, while Gasquet and Monfils, although not as successful as they did in the previous two days, are also regulars in the top 10 of the world rankings and can be regarded as more successful top players.

"As a black player, Monfils has great physical qualities, comparable to a basketball player. His strength and strength are excellent, and he is not inferior to Nadal in terms of mobility. In terms of technique, he is proficient in the bottom line play and the front of the net, and with his age, it is very good. At present, Monfils is ranked outside the top 50 in the world, so in terms of overall strength, Monfils is definitely far inferior to yours. Zhang Depei continued: "Monfils also has a major characteristic, that is, the performance is very strong. ”

"What do you mean?" asked Zhang Guan.

"Show you a video and you'll understand. Zhang Depei found a video highlight of Monfils on his laptop.

On the video, Monfils is like a performance, with all kinds of fancy saves. For example, he pounces on the ground to save the ball and then pounces on the other side to save the ball, such as a person lying on the ground to catch the ball, such as jumping high, flying into the air, and then hitting the ball with a crotch, and even using his head to push the ball over the net.

"Is this guy here to play tennis or to perform acrobatics!" Zhang Guan laughed while watching, this collection of fancy saves by Monfils is indeed very good in viewing, if Zhang Guan is a spectator, he will buy it and give him applause.

"This black brother is really an actor, I am a little reluctant to win him!" Zhang Guan said with a smile.

"That's what I want to draw your attention to, Monfils has a strong performance and the audience loves to watch him perform, so it's easy for him to get support. There is often a situation in the game, the opponent is obviously better than Monfils, and the score is also ahead of Monfils, but the momentum is completely overwhelmed by Monfils, and the audience is also one-sided in favor of Monfils, and the result is more and more passive, and finally Monfils overturned. And Monfils is precisely the kind of player whose momentum comes up, and his condition and swing will get better and better. Zhang Depei said.

"It sounds like Monfils is crazy! Black athletes are like that, and when they are happy, they get better and better. Zhang Guan showed an expectant expression, and continued: "I really want to play against this 'actor-type player' sooner." ”

"Actor? That's a good name. Zhang Depei immediately responded.
